There was a bit of a splash when the Lab accepted a feature-request for weather some years ago. There were some commitments over the next few months, but it never eventuated (except as the punchline of an upcoming comic I'm working on)

    This is purely anecdotal (though maybe someone knows more than my
    anecdote): I have heard that the SL game engine is not good at
    determining which points are under/above/inside an enclosure such
    as a building.  Moreoever, legend has it that there is a whole
    weather system in the engine which was never activated because
    there was no way to stop rain, snow etc. from going through roofs,
    walls, etc.
